Jason Howland — Off to Massachusetts lyrics

Lyrics

If you say «Come with me off to Massachusetts»
Then to Massachusetts, we will go
We will buy dishes there
Maybe even two sets
Buy the finest china
Then we’ll dine a while on crepe Suzettes-
Well? Go on!
We will build model boats off in Massachusetts
There in Massachusetts by the bay
Put them together and wait until the glue sets-
What’s the matter now?
I don’t remember the rest, sir
While we wait, we’ll polka for the folk along the parapets!
Off
To Massachusetts
Yes, we’re off
To where the shops are sweet
We will play minuets off in Massachusetts
Boston, Massachusetts, Beacon Street
If you say «Come with me» off to Massachusetts
Then to Massachusetts, we will go
We will buy dishes there
Maybe even two sets
(together)
Buy the finest china then we’ll dine a while on crepe suzettes
Off
Yes we’re off
To Massachusetts
Yes we’re off (Yes, we’re off)
To where the shops are sweet
We will have no regrets off in Massachusetts
Boston, Massachusetts we-
Boston, Massachusetts we-
Boston, Massachusetts we repeat!
